A remote attacker can gain access to potentially sensitive information.


3) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-43804)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

6) Buffer Underwrite ('Buffer Underflow') (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-31130)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a buffer underflow when using certain IPv6 addresses, such as 0::00:00:00/2". A local privileged user can trigger a boundary error and crash the service.


7) Buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-22745)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error in "Tss2_RC_SetHandler" and "Tss2_RC_Decode". A remote attacker can trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


8) Information Exposure Through Timing Discrepancy (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-5981)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform timing attack.

The vulnerability exists due to the response times to malformed ciphertexts in RSA-PSK ClientKeyExchange differ from response times of ciphertexts with correct PKCS#1 v1.5 padding. A remote attacker can perform timing sidechannel attack in RSA-PSK key exchange.


9) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-5678)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within DH_generate_key() and DH_check_pub_key() functions. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


10) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4641)

The vulnerability allows a local user to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to an error in gpasswd(1), which fails to clean memory properly. When asking for a new password, shadow-utils asks the password twice. If the password fails on the second attempt, shadow-utils fails in cleaning the buffer used to store the first entry. A local user with enough access can retrieve the password from the memory.


11) Out-of-bounds write (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-4016)

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error when processing untrusted input. A local user can trigger an out-of-bounds write and execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.


12) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-3817)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to improper management of internal resources within the application when checking the long DH keys. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


13) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-48564)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability occurs when processing malformed Apple Property List files in binary format. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


14) SQL injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-39417)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary SQL queries in database.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data within the extension script @substitutions@, which uses @extowner@, @extschema@, or @extschema:...@ inside a quoting construct. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted request to the affected application and execute arbitrary SQL commands within the application database.


15) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-48560)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service attack.

The vulnerability exists due to use-after-free exists via heappushpop in heapq. A remote attacker can trigger the vulnerability to perform a denial of service attack.


16) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-48468)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow within parse_required_member() function. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger integer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


17) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-48339)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the hfy-istext-command() function when parsing the "file" and "srcdir" parameters, if a file name or directory name contains shell metacharacter. A remote attacker can execute arbitrary OS commands on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


18) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-48337)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition. A remote attacker can send an unterminated string during the establishment of Kerberos transport encryption, trigger an out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system.


20) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-3094)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources when handling DNS updates. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion by sending a flood of dynamic DNS updates.


21) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-22217)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition within the ares_parse_soa_reply() function in ares_parse_soa_reply.c. A remote attacker can trigger an out-of-bounds read error and crash the application.


22) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2007-4559)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of filenames in the tarfile module in Python. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted archive with symbolic links inside or filenames that contain directory traversal characters (e.g. "..") and overwrite arbitrary files on the system.


23) Permissions, Privileges, and Access Controls (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-5870)

The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
